As many of you know by now, WWE NXT World Champion Adam Cole was pulled from NXT’s mid-west tour due to an injury. As of this writing, he is still advertised as defending his title on this week’s NXT broadcast. Cole took to Twitter on Sunday, releasing the following promo video and a warning to Riddle. He said,
“Matt, let me explain something to you. This championship? It’s mine! It belongs to me. It is never leaving my side no matter how hard you try! This Wednesday on the USA Network, when I defend my championship against you, now it means so much more than just retaining my NXT Championship. Now, I need to send a message. I need to send a message to you and the rest of that NXT locker room, and that is if you get in our way, we will hurt you! I can promise you that! So Matt, I respect you doing anything in your power to walk away with the NXT Championship. And all I’m gonna say is, ‘It wasn’t enough.’ And then, when I beat you, I stand tall in the middle of that ring, proclaiming that the prophecy will continue, you will look like the loser that you are! And that Matt Riddle, that’s undisputed.”
The prophecy will not end. #UndisputedERA #AdamColeBayBay pic.twitter.com/YbMv49DldJ
